New regulations place an increasing liability burden on fiduciaries to be educated and vigilant in stewarding the assets entrusted to their care. Educational event topics focus on essential topics each investor or fiduciary must consider when making a purchase decision including asset allocation, risk management portfolio strategies, insurance, global trends, and alternative investment vehicles such as hedge funds, real estate funds and private equity partnerships.
The Investment Forum serves the wealth management and money manager community by providing a quality educational referral outlet for clients interested in reviewing alternative investment vehicles as a way of further diversifying their portfolio risk and enhancing their return as a part of an overall portfolio strategy. Traditionally, these types of investment options are outside the scope of counsel able to be provided by licensed wealth managers. Therefore, the key to successful investing in these areas is to be well educated, invest in vehicles which provide high quality management expertise and in partnership with other investors to spread your risk.
